On traits matching and the modular organization of food web and occurrence networks
What mechanisms shape ecological networks? In Paraná River piscivores, species traits and abundance scaling promote modular structures. Our findings reveal how communities self‐organize and highlight the conditions needed to sustain them. Abstract Modularity and nestedness have been observed recurrently across different ecological networks, including ...

Composición y sobreposición dietaria de Pinguipes chilensis (Perciformes: Pinguipedidae), Cheilodactylus variegatus (Perciformes: Cheilodactylidae) y Aplodactylus punctatus (Perciformes: Aplodactylidae) en el litoral costero valdiviano, Chile [PDF]
Pinguipes chilensis, Cheilodactylus variegatus y Aplodactylus punctatus son especies comunes de ser registradas a lo largo de la costa chilena, no obstante información sobre su alimentación es escasa para la zona sur de nuestro país. Por ello, se analizó la composición y sobreposición dietaria de estas especies para la costa Valdiviana.

We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...

Worldwide Invasions of Centrarchidae: The Dark Side of the Sunfish Family
ABSTRACT Freshwater fish invasions are major drivers of global ecological change, disrupting native biodiversity and ecosystem functions. However, many invasive fish hold significant socioeconomic value, resulting in conflict over their management. Centrarchidae, which are globally distributed and are important for sportfishing and aquaculture, are now

Impoundment Effects on Water Quality as Reflected in Parasitism of Reservoir Basses [PDF]
Our aquatic environments are rapidly becoming useless as natural resources through pollution from various sources. It is therefore necessary for us to further understand the various means which relate to this process.
